JUNE 2024 update - Navigo pass is available now on iPhone and works great. A Navigo Découverte pass is 30€ for a week (Mon-Sun) of travel in zones 1-5 on metro, RER, buses, Montmartre funicular. We just came back from Paris and used it many times daily (no need to unlock your phone, just bring it close to a scanner). The trip planning was so much easier after watching your videos. THANK YOU so much! You are doing an amazing job!!! I recommend your channel to everyone going to France.
Yes, putting it on your iPhone is the easiest and best way, IMHO. Thanks for the update, I was about to post the same thing.
Thanks for posting!! They said it required data usage in the video. I wouldn’t think that would require data. Did you notice if it did?
@@WereintheRockies I did not notice, since for $12/day ATT gives you unlimited everything, just like you are in the States (capped at $100/month!) .. it may require some type of data to verify funds are available...but who knows. I'm not a super tech person.
@@Lerxstification thanks!
Will be traveling to Paris at the end of the month and going to Venice afterwards. My flight is out of Orly. Can the OrlyBus ticket get me from Gare du Nord to Antony and on to the OrlyVal?
Literally back from a week in Paris last night, and all of these videos were endlessly helpful, I cannot stress enough just how much better prepared I was for visiting thanks to Les Frenchies. Thank you both very much for making it a much more enjoyable experience than if I'd been fumbling about trying to figure everything out. To anybody thinking about visiting Paris, I definitely recommend it, and please, please, please watch as many of their videos as possible, it'll make your lives so much easier!
Thank you!!
On the way to Paris in two weeks. I think I need to rewatch several videos and take notes!
I couldn't agree more!
I'm so happy to read your comment. We've been watching on repeat awaiting our upcoming trip, and I already feel so much more prepared and less overwhelmed.. I'm so grateful for these videos too.
When I was there in 2022, I bought bunches of tickets and they never worked when I out them in the machine. They were always spit back at me. It was so crazy. I wound up walking everywhere! The train to Normandy was easier. Bought the tickets online and used my phone at the gates. So, thanks. i hope this will help me have a better experience. I think I’ll do Navigo this time.
Problem with having travel tickets on your phone, especially as a tourist, is that you’re going to be using your phone a LOT as you move around the city and you’ll be losing battery power faster than usual. It’s one less worry to know your travel ticket isn’t relying on it.
Having a power bank with you helps a lot. I did this when I visited Italy and had power throughout out the day because of the power bank.
Power bank is a must! They even have magnetic power banks so that you don’t need a cord which makes things so much easier!
Not true if you switch off wifi
Also, I like getting the souvenir or the physical card.
Doesn't it work even when the phone is turned off?
Best metro card tutorial ever made for any city on UA-cam.
What about TrainPal? Not sure if you tried, certainly does it all and got whole bunch of ticket cards on sale💖
This split screen showing your phone on this video was EVERYTHING! Seeing this live while you were explaining was so helpful. Thank you!
Thank you so much!!
one tip when topping up your navigo pass: after your credit card is processed, be sure to wait a few secs for the card to be loaded. i was being rushed last time i did this, grabbed my navigo pass off the reader before it was done loading. lost 20 euros; gained a good lesson! 🙃
Follow the prompts on the screen!
If you already have a Navigo card, then you can do all of this from the comfort of your own home. My wife and I travel to Paris in about 3 weeks. We'll top up our Navigo cards a couple days before we leave in the comfort of our home.
Going in 2 weeks on my first solo trip and I’m so grateful for this video
Me too!
Apart from the valuable and succinctly presented info on this channel, another underrated feature in your videos is that your background music is subtle and never overpowers the message. Thank you!
Wow, thank you!
As an older adult I feel better using the paper Metro tickets, BUT now with this video, I'm going to go with the "Easy" card next trip. Thank you for this video instruction.
So to the point, so efficient, without any useless yackety-yak. Thanks.
I’ve been watching your videos religiously! I can’t wait to visit France in a few weeks. :)
Thank you!!
Thanks as always for the important tips. It's always good hearing from you both. ❤❤
Thank you Les Frenchies for your dedication to help tourists have a better experience in beautiful Paris!!
I've waited for this update a few weeks already! Thank you so much!
Hope you enjoy it!
What a great, comprehensive video! I’ll be going to Paris soon for the third time, and I was still trying to figure out the best option for the metro. Now with this video, I know exactly what I need. Thanks so much!
Love your channel,simply the best. Love visiting France. I pass your channel on to many future visitors
Thank you this is very helpful. Watching you makes it so easy.
Thank you so much for the video. We just returned from a trip in Western Europe, having spent the most time in Paris. Buying metro tickets, including RER C tickets from city center, to Versailles palace, were a breeze. When we got stuck for a moment, we though back to the details to the video, and were able to process the Metro ticket purchase and could not have done it so easily, withhout a live attendent, without tips from you guys. In fact, buying Metro / Tube tickets in other European cities, made it so much easier for us. Thank you for all you do.
Just returned from 5 days in Paris. We found your recommendations really helpful. Found the cutest bistro in 13th. Le Manufacture. So cute, great food and great service. Stayed at COQ and it was fabulous. Tx for all you do
My partner and I are currently visiting Paris. These videos have been extremely helpful when navigating the city. Merci beaucoup!
Seriously, you guys have the most useful information on your channel. Thanks!!! (And I've lived in Paris for a while.)
I’m going to Paris this spring. Thank you for making this insightful video.❤
My wife and I want to say thank you to guys. We were in Paris this past week, and your tips about the city, what to do, where to go, and much more were super helpful. Thank you again. Carlos and Ines.
Our pleasure!
Love this channel and what a useful video! Coming to Paris for a week next year from Australia so will definitely rewatch!
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you for this detailed video. I have watched your earlier metro video and I must say the details in the new one are extremely helpful. I feel confident about using the Metro on my next trip to Paris.
Just returned a week ago from 5 days in Paris and had a wonderful time. Your videos were incredibly helpful - from buying metro passes to sightseeing to avoiding pickpockets. MERCI !!!
Thank you, thank you !!!!
This is so, so helpful ! You've explained it so well.
Thank you. Enjoy!
This video makes me more comfortable now to take the metro in my first trip to Paris next month! I've been watching many of your videos and it has helped tremendously in planning! Even more excited for my trip. Merci beaucoup!
Yay! We want people to travel with confidence. Bon voyage!
Antoine and Colleen, thank you so much for this video and for your many other valuable videos about Paris. If not for this content, I wouldn’t know which pass to get and how to go about our visit. It’s our third day in Paris and we got the Navigo Devouverte weekly pass. I watched almost all your videos repeatedly as we prepared for this trip. Even the restaurant etiquette and phrases you taught are so helpful. It made ordering easy. And French servers are pleasantly surprised. You are our favorite Paris guide. Looking forward to more of your exciting content. Merci! ❤
Thank you Eileen ♡
you guys are the best! i was so surprised to see my question in this video answered Thank you !!!!
I didnt see someone well organized like both of you,all the info are really like gold for people that didnt visit paris at all. Thank you alot and god bless both of you ❤
Just back from my first trip to Paris! Went for a city break for 4 days and your videos were a great help and prepared me for my first trip abroad. Thank you so much for all the useful and reliable information!
Yay! So glad you had a good experience. We want everyone who comes here to feel prepared and confident.
This was SO incredibly helpful. Very concise and informative. Thanks so much!
You are so welcome!
Thanks for the great content. Very helpful for a visual learner!
😊❤️👍
I just started watching your videos. Thank you so much. It was super helpful 😊
Hands down the BEST and most informative video I have seen to help us understand how to tackle the Metro when we take our first trip to Paris. Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into making this so much easier to understand for us newbies!
Thank you so much!
I'm one of those individuals who got ticketed for not having a picture... I was transiting through Paris for 5 days, and was doing heavy transport use, and well on the way back from Versailles I got checked by control, and they ticketed me for not having the picture on the back. The person even wanted to accuse me of having stolen the card despite I still having the receipt with me, and the CC used for the transaction. Moral of the story is Sign it and have your picture!
Love you both. !❤
You guys are doing great job... Great information ...!!!
This is such useful information! Thank you. You two create wonderful videos. Your channel is great.
Thanks so much!
True. You have both been great and sooo helpful. This last time coming to Paris was a completely diferent experience thanks to your videos with tips. Keep up the good work. Will plan another trip soon.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much Guys, you are so kind for explaining to us the easiest way possible to navigate inside de Ile de France. This video becomes super handy to me since I will be in Paris the last week of April 2024. I'm currently living in Connecticut and this is my second time visiting the City of Light but in 10 years gap everything changed lol. Keep up with the excellent work that you do with your videos. Greetings from New England.
Greetings right back to you. Happy travels.
this is exactly the video I needed. thank you
These are great tips. Well done putting this video together. We’re in Paris, have 2 days left and it’s been very helpful.
The week pass ended up being the choice for us. We’ve been all over using the metro system and it’s impressive how well it works.
Nice! Glad you're having a good time.
You guys are BEYOND AWESOME! Merci!! ❤
Thank you Sonia 😊
This is very helpful. Thank you!❤
You're so welcome!
Again...a beauty!!!! Very informative, simple and extremely practical. Thank you very much!!!!
You're welcome!
Wry clear explanations. Thanks so much.
Great vlog, as ever. Super informative!!
The photo booth at CDG charged 8 euros per person (!). Wished we took our own pictures at Walmart before leaving and sent them to 1-hour photo (16 cents). Basically just need to size it as if a passport I think. Maybe a little smaller.
This is very helpful, thank you so much and I really enjoy watching your videos!
Thank you ♡
Great info. Thanks much Les Frenchies!
Félicitations pour vos vidéos qui sont super bien faits. La simplicité et la qualité de vos explications, le débit vocal , les images qui accompagnent et qui aident à comprendre les informations ..un travail de vrais pros qui facilite nos préparatifs à moi et mon épouse qui serons à Paris pour 10 jours en juin 2024. Nous logerons à l'hôtel Magellan. Merci infiniment à vous deux!
I was just in Paris with my 4 year old son this past week, and this video made buying our passes and traveling around the city with a toddler easy. Everything shared is on point. THANK YOU for this and every other spot on review.
So glad you had a great experience ♡
I'm visiting this Monday - Friday. I have been using your videos for my planning for next week. I also booked a tour. Thank you
Have fun!
This was the most informative vlog about Paris transportation I have ever seen or read! Thank you les Frenchies 🇫🇷
You're welcome!
Thanks for the clear explanation, guys. I'll be in Normandy soon and planning a day trip to Paris so this handy guide really helps
Thanks so much! This is super helpful for our upcoming trip
Glad it was helpful!
Just got back from Paris and this video was so helpful. Thanks Les Frenchies!
Glad it was helpful!
Currently in Paris on our first trip, your videos have been extremely helpful so thank you 😊
We have noticed that at the moment there is a lot of construction for the Olympics. We did have an issue where we couldn’t purchase the Easy Pass at the CDG airport, had to queue in 3 different queues for about 1 hour total until we eventually purchased at the ticket desk. I think the machines were down, not sure. But the easy pass has been great so far !!
Very informative! Thank you!!!
Y’all have saved me on my trip to Paris for my honeymoon!!! Many thanks from a Texan🤠
Congratulations! Bon voyage.
this video helped me soooo much , Thank you for this great video!!!!
Bonjour! Leaving Paris today…so appreciate your wonderfully informative videos…they were spot on …. transportation from CGD, purchasing and using the metro navigo easy passes, purchasing a two day pass for the batobus for viewing the Eiffel Tower and experiencing d’Orsay museum and many other sites, CROISSANTS, ordering and dining comfortably at many wonderful bistros, cafes and markets (we booked a tour to the Paris flea markets) and just wondering leisurely through the streets and gardens of different Paris arrondissements. People were helpful and most spoke English. Curtesy is a must…and Parisians prefer privacy in public areas. Thank you again!
We're so glad you had a great experience ♡
Bonjour Antoine and Colleen. We used the Metro when we visited. Your videos were very helpful. Thank you for all your useful and entertaining videos😊
You're welcome. Thank you for watching!
As always, your videos are very helpful. I was lucky enough to run into you two this week at Mont St Michel, sorry for being such a fan girl but I was surprised to see you there. Thanks for the tips and Antione, you were correct about the stairs and the Abbey. I did make it to the top and it was well worth it. Thanks for the tips.
it was fun meeting you. Those stairs are a killer!!
So helpful as always. Thanks Colleen and Antoine
😊❤️👍
I just finished a trip to Paris this week. This video was very helpful when I got there. I felt like a Pro.
Thank you for your MANY informative videos. I’m a huge fan! Traveling to Paris on April 19…your videos are delightful!
Thank you. Bon voyage!
Such a great video! This would have been helpful when we were planning our trip a couple years ago because it definitely can be confusing. What's great about the Navigo Easy pass is that if you keep the card, you can use it again on a return trip (at least for now).
True!
My wife and I ran into you today while you were shooting. Thanks for stopping and saying hello to us for a few minutes. Your videos have been quite helpful to us on this trip!
Hello! So glad you're having a great trip 🙂
I'm so thankful you guys made this video. It helped me prepared a lot! since I'm so nervous about all these ticket things. Thank you :))
Thank you both for your videos-so helpful ❤️
It's our pleasure ♡
Impeccable timing, I just arrived yesterday, so this video is super helpful, thanks!
❤️ Enjoy!
this video is everything!!!!!!! im going to paris in a couple weeks and i literally had no idea how any od this worked, this video explained everything down to a detail and so so easy!!! thank you!!!!!!
❤️❤️❤️
Bon voyage!
A great big thanks to you both, this was the one last thing I was thinking about for our trip in july
Perfect!!
Thank you! Very informative
Just got back from Paris! Your videos were SO helpful! The weekly Navigo was perfect, had no issues.
Awesome!
Outstanding video. Headed to Paris tomorrow and will use this as my instructions for buying and reloading the Navigo cards. Thanks.
Fantastic!
This video is so useful, straight forward and explanation is very clear. Good thing I checked this video before my upcoming trip to Paris.
Bon voyage!
We had a wonderful time in Paris. Your videos helped us in many ways.
Thanks you. We plan on returning someday.
😊😊😊
It was very helpful. merci
You guys are a gem, I have learned so much from both of you . I will buy the Navi go card . Two weeks I will be there. I have a iPhone. ❤❤❤
Awesome! Thank you!
So practical and helpful!!!!! Though not Paris, my granddaughter and her friend were in Nice a few months ago and there was some transition happening regarding who paid what, when, and how on the buses. One day it was free - the next day it was not. So when the driver shooed them on when they tried to pay on day two - with cash - they thought it was another free day. Nope. When the transit authority got on to check tickets - they didn’t have one. Their passports were taken and given back only after they paid $80.00 US a piece! Rider - head’s up! Between an unfamiliar system and the language barrier - it was an unnecessarily expensive misunderstanding. No leeway for the foreigners.
i missd this video and saw the last 2 you did! We ended up buying individual tickets for 4 of us EVERY TIME we used the Metro. Such a hassle. The London Underground was so much more convenient. Thanks for the video anyway! It was nice to learn that you can't buy a Navigo on the iphone - i thought I was going crazy and was super frustrated that I couldn't make it happen!
thanks for that info, it´s very useful! 💯
Great informational video. Well explained and clear. We’re off to Paris soon so thank you.
That was such a well made comprehensive video.
thank you so much!!
Excellent information!
This is so helpful! Thank you! 🎉
